Martyrs Perished Lyrics

Martyrs Perished
Lie for your truth
Do what thou will

Shrouded sacrifice
Pay the fatal price

Martyrs perished

Nature of the beast compels to bite off your own hand
Golden vision blinding us of raped and stolen land
Submerged in too deep
Opiated sleep
Zombie holocaustic term subliminal command

Our kingdom overturned
Who rose is our concern
What used to listen now can also see
Expose to all the powers that be

(solo)

Sliver of the fortunate hypocrisy is just
Hide behind a cross with greed pride sodomy and lust
Bare misfortune to the rest
Beating of the chest
Primal screams indigenous to hatred from the less
To hatred from the less

Probing questions spewing from the flames
Give no answers
Internal detonation?
No more empathy

Martyrs perish
With unnoted recognition of their cause

(solo)
